Early morning inspections

Is it allright to work bees in the early morning hours, just after sunrise, if the temps are in a decent range (60F and above)? What about the reverse, just before sundown? What are your experiences at these times?

Re: Early morning inspections

My bees work best very early in the morning. They are not so active and they stay put on the frames when I inspect them. My bees have always been very calm, but maybe that will change when they get more honey stored!
